“It seems most people hate or fear other people more than they value their own liberty. Centuries of acting on this character flaw have led to where we are now. It’s why we Americans have so little liberty left, and why government is allowed to license most of what remains. If you’re willing to sacrifice liberty to punish someone else, you’re part of the problem. If you want to be free to do the things you like, but want government to prohibit others from doing the things they like, you need to be smarter. Is anyone being violated by either of you? If so, stop. If not, calm down.” (06/11/25)
